Miami, Florida (May 9, 2017) – Star Trek: The Cruise IIhas commissioned an entire crew of fan favorites to man the ship when it launches two voyages in January 2018. Host George Takei
will be joined by nearly 20 stars from the film and television
productions of the groundbreaking franchise, including Vaughn Armstrong,

Dorn, John de Lancie, Jonathan Frakes, Max Grodenchik, Gates McFadden,
Robert O’Reilly, John Paladin, Ethan Phillips, Robert Picardo, Armin
Shimerman, Brent Spiner, Connor Trinneer, and Nana Visitor. Star Trek fans
aboard the cruises will spend a week among the iconic actors,
interacting with them during inspired events and impromptu encounters. Produced by Entertainment Cruise Productions, LLC, under license by CBS Consumer Products, Voyage 1 of Star Trek: The Cruise II
will sail from January 5-11, 2018, with Voyage 2 following January
11-17, 2018, both traveling from Miami to Roatan (Honduras), Harvest
Caye (Belize) and Costa Maya (Mexico).

STAR TREK: The Cruise II is a Star Trek
experience unlike any other this side of the Gamma Quadrant. The
six-day voyage on the spectacular Norwegian Jade boldly goes where no
one has gone before, packed with special Star Trek-themed shows, events and programs including:

A Star Trek: The Cruise Museum exhibiting genuine pieces and classic memorabilia from the archive

A make-up artist transforming guests into Star Trek characters

Live Music including avant-garde synth pop band Information Society

Almost every event includes an interactive element which makes the Voyage a unique, personal and immersive Star Trek experience.

“This will be the most interactive experience ever created between Star Trek fans and actors,” says Star Trek: The Cruise II host George Takei. “Come aboard and experience the voyage!” Every guest aboard Star Trek: The Cruise II will be offered the opportunity to take a group photo with the icon (one per cabin).

The
ship will be redesigned to feature sites inspired by the television
show and films, including “Sandrine’s II,” the sister restaurant of Chez
Sandrine (Star Trek: Voyager), and “13 Forward” (the Officer’s
Bar influenced by 10 Forward and best described by Captain Picard as
the “hub of the ship’s social activity”).

Over
4,000 fans have already pre-registered for cabins aboard the 2018
cruises, with both expected to sell out. Cabin prices start at $1300
per person, and include all meals, tickets to mainstage events, parties
as well as port charges, taxes and onboard gratuities.
